Looking for part IFR 135 companies
As of now I've been looking to move on from being a CFI to a 135 company flying light twins like Seneca's or 402's... Does anyone have a list of some companies I can look at? I found a few here in Seattle area. I like to find some other ones that's out there.

Alaska
Why not go to Alaska? I was a CFI in the Northwest and it was a career buster. We have few opportunities here in WA. I always tell new pilots to head to the east coast. The last guy who went there got on with Pinnacle after only 9 months of instructing. Since opportunities are so plentiful he was able to get some twin time instructing and picked up 100 hours SIC in a citation. I would strongly advise going east. And, whatever you do Don't' ever work for Horizon.
